Anomaly — An anomaly is any occurrence or object that is strange, unusual, or unique. In the following particular contexts it may refer to:Astronomy* Eccentric anomaly, intermediate value used to compute the position of a celestial object as a function of… … Wikipedia
Anomaly (physics) — In quantum physics an anomaly or quantum anomaly is the failure of a symmetry of a theory s classical action to be a symmetry of any regularization of the full quantum theory. In classical physics an anomaly is the failure of a symmetry to be… … Wikipedia
Chiral anomaly — A chiral anomaly is the anomalous nonconservation of a chiral current. In some theories of fermions with chiral symmetry, the quantization may lead to the breaking of this (global) chiral symmetry. In that case, the charge associated with the… … Wikipedia

Chern–Simons theory — The Chern–Simons theory is a 3 dimensional topological quantum field theory of Schwarz type, introduced by Edward Witten. It is so named because its action is proportional to the integral of the Chern–Simons 3 form. In condensed matter physics,… … Wikipedia
